2.4.2 What is the benefit of Sneak-Hide?
Using sneak and hide at the same time (Sneak-Hide) allows a rogue to move while invisible to most mobs and players! The rogue is "invisible" to most mobs and players with the exception of those that can cast "See Invisible". Unlike the spell "Invisibility", sneak-hide has unlimited duration until turned off (like Hide), a spell is cast on the rogue by a spellcaster/bard, or the rogue zones. Sneak-Hide also works against both Undead creatures and regular creatures. However, there is always a minute chance of any mob seeing through your Sneak-Hide and detecting you. Starting at 51st level, you begin to move faster while sneaking. By 60th level, you are at a full run, and this combines with any speed spells.

This skill is highly valued for maneuvering in dungeons, scouting or corpse recovery.
As to the bold parts - The rogue is "invisible" to most mobs and players with the exception of those that can cast "See Invisible" - it should most likely read - The rogue is "invisible" to most mobs and players with the exception of those PLAYERS that can cast "See Invisible" - as I am unaware of any mobs that purposely cast see invis on other mobs (but possible). You also should have put in bold - a minute chance - as that is the exact opposite of what is on p99.
